Customer Reviews Saucony Kinvara 11

For awhile my training shoe of choice has been the brooks launch but I decided to give these a shot since they come in a wide which is what I really need. I've only worn them twice and they are a very lightweight trainer with a soft feel and just enough support without being too much. Now for the negative yesterday was my second run in these a 7 mi city run the day after some heavy rainfall I had just crossed a semi busy road trying to get out of the way quick and took a hard spill on the curb which was ever so slightly wet anyways after only my second run in these there is visible wear the knit tore a little and the rubber at the tip of the toe box came off some impact from my fall so perhaps the materials are not so durable. After I got home from my run I went to walk the dogs and slipped but did not fall on some mud at end of my driveway. I really do like these shoes I just won't be wearing these in the rain there's no traction or grip I will stick with the brooks launch in wet conditions.

I love my new shoes! So fashionable and very comfortable.

This shoe is just what I was looking for.

The bottom of the shoes is too hard, and it hurts my feet after an hour walk.

I think The Kinvara 12 was a pair I bought for my grand daughter

I purchased these shoes 1.5 months ago, and I run about three days a week. The logo has cracked and is already starting to peel off on both shoes. I still love the comfort and light weight feel of these shoes, and therefore still recommend the show. But it is disappointing that they are already wearing in this way.

Taking a long time to break in. Very ridged. Still giving me blisters after ~20 wears. Still light weight and good quality, just not as light as I usually find the brand

I ran in the original Kinvara through the 4 but from the 5 on it felt a little weird on my foot. Was stoked to return to this shoe on the 12th model but for some weird reason the last pair I ordered (same size as the previous 3 pairs of the 12) was just too narrow. Idk. I wouldn't mind a tiny bit more cushion under the ball of my foot on this shoe, Saucony.

These shoes were very comfortable until the fabric at the heel wore through and left a big hole. I hadn't had them long when this happened and this is the third pair by Saucony that I have had this happen

These seem like great running shoes, but the sizing is off. I have other Saucony sneakers in size 9 which fit perfectly, but my toes have almost no space in this pair and I get hot spots on my heels. I can only wear on shorter runs. Consider going up half of a size.

I bought these because I loved kinvara 11, but I hate the 12. The worst this is the flimsy tongue that rubs at my ankle. But the fit, support and feel of the 12 was disappointing. It was too late to send back but I did not like this new version.

I've been buying kinvara since 2011 and I have loved every one of them. Except the 12. They are made bigger and once I returned them and got a bigger size they seemed fine. But it was short lived. After about about 20 minutes my feet started hurting. So I tried them for two weeks and then used them for walking at work and every day wear. After about 2 hours they make my feet ache. They aren't good for anything. Super disappointed with whatever they did to the midsole.

They were comfortable enough but the top mesh ripped after only 4 months. The back rubbed and I got blisters but maybe I needed to wear different socks with them. I expected more after reading the reviews.

These shoes are just OK. foot slides side to side, the toe get dirty easily and they don't come clean. For the price I would expect them to feel like good track runners. They do have good tread

I have these in black with bright pink and aqua accents. They are really cute! They are also very comfortable and I can wear them all day even though I have diminished fat pads on the bottom of my feet. My only complaint is that because the tongue is attached to the side of the opening they are hard for me to put on.

I fell in love with these shoes the moment I put them on! These are the most comfortable shoes I've had for running and they made me that much faster. Unfortunately, after 3 months and only 230 km the right shoe is already torn at the toe. For the price, I thought I would be able to use them on my runs (3 times a week) for at least a year. I'm very disappointed with the low quality of the upper layer!

Too flat for me. Started to give me foot pain for long miles. I would say this shoe is only good for shorter miles.

Really only my first run in them was great. They seem to make me over pronate (never have issues before with this) and puts a lot of stress on my ankles. Old Achilles issue flared up too. I love Saucony - especially the endorphin pros!! - so I know it's just not a shoe for me and I will have to back to square one. But at least I know now that Kinvaras aren't for me.

I love the Kinvara, but hate that Saucony thinks making a women's shoe just means adding pink. The men's color schemes are always better! Just look at Neon. I want the men's color scheme!

I had a pair of kinvara some years back, and I loved them. They were light, comfortable, and looked nice. These ones look pretty good, and are comfortable, but the overall fit and finish just isn't what I remember. the tongue irritates my foot where it meets the ankle. Also, my former pair were size 9 and fit great. These pair are also 9 but seem a bit too big. Too bad I have worn them outside, otherwise I would return them for something different.

Not a big fan I've been wearing tge Saucony Kinvara for years. This latest version has little support so i have foot pain and knee pain.

Too narrow. Feet hurt after running. Not great for me.

Comfy but flat. Not very flexible. Feels a bit heavy.

Shows are comfortable although they seem a little flimsy for a running shoe. I walk with the typically around 6 miles each time.i would have expected a bit more comfort and support.
